"The Journey" has begun for LOONA's June Comeback
With the release of "The Journey" teaser trailer for South Korean girl group 이달의 소녀 LOONA's Comeback, it is announced that the new "summer special mini-album" is titled "Flip That", is scheduled for JUNE 20th @ 6PM KST release! No wait! .... Or is the song titled "THE JOURNEY"? I am soooo confused...!
For the time being, I will label their comeback as "LOONA FLIPTHAT" on TUNESTALKSG, where all teaser promotions for will reside.

INTRODUCING LOONA
LOONA on TUNESTALKSG
hinting at the start of a journey into a fantastic world, guided by #LOONA. The bright atmosphere that come from natural sounds such as birds chirping and wind, and flowers of many colors, give off the fresh coolness of summer days.

It's all coming into place... the reference to the 12 doors in PTT, the opening door in One&Only, the door keyholes in Not Friends, the subtle teasing or arches in [&]'s concept... pic.twitter.com/gpOR3YuHmc

As seen from above Tweets, folks are talking about the Train Departure noticeboard (Seen somewhat clearer in the first teaser image reveal), and YeoJin's lollipop placed on the seat, that links to YeoJin being "lost" ... but I somehow could not get over the HUMONGOUS pastel purple colored "flower pot" to the left of the orange for (seen in image-far-right)! Or perhaps that "door(way)" is flower-sized tiny...? LOL
In my initial excitement for seeing the trailer, I'd was confused with the title of the track, thinking that it was named "The Journey", while the "#flipthat"-hashtag felt like a reaction to LOONA placing second in Queendom2 (kinda like F**KTHAT), when perhaps it was my own personal subconsciousness reacting to said result :p
The greenery and softness reminded me of their series of "Weekly Poems" promos from their 2017 collaboration with "Law of Creation" Mobile RPG game... but it is also obvious this is a new incarnation or evolution of the LOONAVERSE-lore, which has been subtly refocused and reintroduced since [&], and from the fantastic deduction by Orbit-sleuths (embedded tweets above from @IoonaIoop and @tdoftloonaverse), this'll be a fun delve back into the lore, IMHO.
There'll be time for new Orbits to delve into the lore, or time for us to reacquaint ourselves (thanks to the brilliant brains online), before June 20th, so have fun (re)discovering LOONA!
Meanwhile, for nostalgia - featured below is HeeJin's TVCF for the "Weekly Poems" (see the rest in blogpost-linked).
